o.o I can only ever picture him in an army uniform and with the name Sergeant Johnson now... He's probably one of the coolest voice actors and singer there is with his deep voice :)
I actually saw him live, completely by chance, at a random jam session I just happened to be at in Berlin. The whole time I was thinking... "is that...? No, surely not. Or is it? Nah, can't be." Then at the end of his set the drummer got up and said "Keith David, you've seen him in many films." I was like "NO FUCKING WAY I KNEW IT."
I have loved this man since the early 80's! I knew he was talented with a voice and killer body fine @ss to boot a smile to die for, but I never knew he could sing so smoothly and sweet. If I'm a gargoyle he just melt my stone heart to mush...
whats with all the people refering to keith david as foley. He was already a video game star long before MW2 came out (and a movie star way before that).
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I dunno........Keith doesn't seem to capture the silky charm of Nat King Cole........just going through the motions........Cole was the real deal and cant be duplicated.
What is with all these people being shocked the man can sing? I mean, seriously! What are they hearing when they listen to him SPEAK? Are his tones not already dulcet? So it's not really so far off base to thing he'd be an excellent singer, too. DUH.
hahahahaha hilarious, he has the smoothest voice for sure. he played the voice of goliath on the show gargoyls in the mid 90s, one of my fav shows all time. that deserves a blower in my book.
I just heard this guy on a Empires documentary, and couldn't place him till I googled his name, I'm stunned to find out he was Golaith on gorgoyles and plays in a ton of movies I love, riddick, crash, ...and what a gd voice.
It's funny that you say that because he has already been hired to play the villain in Disney's upcoming feature, The Princess and the Frog! I believe his character has a song, too.
Heh heh. Funny you should mention Gargoyles...I was just watching that and my little bro (17) overheard Goliath and asked if it was James Earl Jones...Lol....yeah, K.D is a great presence on the stage, big screen, and voice as well...awesome!
You said it, man! Probably the greatest voice over announcer of our time - where would Ken Burns' docs be without him - this was news to me this guy could chirp too...impressive
Well I'll be damned! I had no idea that Keith David could sing! He definitely should do more of this! This is what makes YouTube special. Thanks for sharing this!
hollywood is so unfair you see this guy keith david is so famous he cant walk two feet without getting recognized hes the best actor in hollywood today yet he cant get lead acting roles only supporting roles? fuck you hollywood. he should be getting samuel l jackson type roles like coach carter the guy works alottttttttttttttttt
I hung out with Keith back on October '06 in Shreveport, LA and he is really a class act....everyone who asked him for an autograph ..he didn't hesitate to give.... SMOOTH DUDE!
I met Keith David about 3 weeks ago at the Union Station, he sang live! He's soooo nice! I can't believe he can act, sing, and give empowering speeches!
EXCELLENT, an exceptional tribute to Nat King Cole, I wonder if Natalie Cole likes his renditions too ?
